As part f multiple-site injury (polytrauma), BAT contributes anther 15% of trauma mortality.1 Exsanguination accounts for 0 to 90% of acute deaths from abdominal injury. More than 5% of such cases are amenable to surgery, and recent years ave seen safe extension of nonoperative, image-guided reatments to most victims of blunt-force trauma.2-21 Early ecognition and treatment decisions have been greatly imacted by increasingly sophisticated cross-sectional imaging nd image-guided, minimally invasive therapies.22-32

متن کاملComparison of Intra-abdominal Pressure Measurement and Physical Exam for Diagnosis of Surgery Indication in Patients with Abdominal Compartment Syndrome due to Blunt Trauma
Background & Aims: Increase in abdominal pressure can lead to the so-called intra–abdominal compartment syndrome (ACS) that is often observed during the first 24 hours after sever abdominal trauma and surgery. Measurement of the intra abdominal pressure through the bladder as a non-invasive measurement can provide a quick and accurate assessment of abdominal pressure changes. This study was per...
متن کاملThe Utility of Ultrasound and Laboratory Data for Predicting Intra-abdominal Injury among Children with Blunt Abdominal Trauma
Background: Children with blunt abdominal trauma (BAT) can be risk stratified for intra-abdominal injury (IAI) through a combination of readily accessible clinical variables. The aim of this study was to identify ultrasound and laboratory studies that accurately identify IAI while limiting unnecessary CT-scan among children without injury. Materials and Methods We conducted a prospective, obse...
متن کاملAbdominal Splenosis: An Unusual Cause of Bowel Obstruction in a 7-Year-Old Child
Splenosis is a rare condition defined as a heterotopic auto-transplantation of splenic tissue, typically after blunt abdominal trauma. It can occur anywhere in the abdominal cavity, or even the chest. Splenosis found in clinical practice is relatively rare because most patients are asymptomatic. We report a rare case of abdominal splenosis in a 7-year-old boy, 3 years after an abdominal blunt t...
